There appears to be a hard limit on the length of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the
System.loadlibrary call (96 chars?).. Example 1 fails:

modulac% SHATest
modulac% LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/proj/forest/jvb_projects/javasoft/COM/Sun/JavaSoft/java/pickle/shs/1/jdk/0/mjj-checkout/drv/sparc_solaris_2:/usr/openwin/lib

Example 2 with a shorter path succeeds:

modulac% SHATest
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/proj/forest/jvb_projects/javasoft/COM/Sun/JavaSoft/java/pickle/shs/1/jdk/0/mjj-checkout/drv:/usr/openwin/lib
